Home Instead is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for seniors with Alzheimer's through specialized in-home care. In this blog, explore how our Care Professionals navigate the unique care of Alzheimer's, providing comprehensive care that fosters comfort and dignity.

Understanding the Unique Needs of Alzheimer's Patients

Our Care Professionals are specially trained to understand the unique needs and behaviors associated with Alzheimer's and other Dementias. We approach care with patience and empathy, creating an environment that promotes security and reduces anxiety. We find that by learning about who the person was before their diagnosis we can enhance the quality of care that they will receive. We tailor our approach to contain activities and techniques that celebrate who they are as people which means the older adult receives higher quality care.

Personalized Care Plans for Alzheimer's Patients

We understand importance of personalized care plans for seniors with Alzheimer's. Home Instead's office team and Care Professionals work closely with families to develop strategies that address the evolving needs of individuals with this progressive condition. We will regularly adjust the care plan to find the best ways to manage challenging behaviours.

Family Involvement in Alzheimer's Care

Learn about our collaborative approach to Alzheimer's care, involving family members in the caregiving process. Family input is invaluable in creating an environment that reflects the senior's life history and personal preferences. We find that seniors with Dementia respond much better when we know more about who they were before the diagnosis of Dementia. We are then able to find activities that interest them more then generic activities. We find this familiarity bring them joy in the moment and increases their quality of life.
